Story
Meet Milo 🖤 Milo is a gentle, sweet, and incredibly loving cat who is looking for a home where he can truly thrive. We rescued Milo when he was just 3 weeks old, so he is very bonded to people and absolutely adores his humans. He’s a total cuddle bug—affectionate, calm, and happiest when he’s snuggled up close or napping nearby. Milo has grown up in a home full of love, and this decision has been extremely hard for us. Unfortunately, despite our best efforts and giving it a full year, our dog still sees Milo as prey. Milo deserves to feel safe and be able to roam his entire home freely, without fear or confinement. He is: • Gentle and sweet-natured • Very affectionate and people-oriented • Loves cuddling and being close to his humans • Calm, loving, and well-socialized Milo would do best in a home with very calm, cat-safe pets where he can relax and enjoy the life he deserves. He has so much love to give and will make an incredible companion to someone looking fo

Hello! My name is Pickles. I am a fun, loving, outgoing, and chunky cat looking for a new family to call my own. I love to chase around strings and play with other cats. When I’m not playing you can find me laying in a silly position, or cuddled up beside you waiting for scratches and butt pats. Pickles will come with some food and litter box. His adoption fee is $20 to make sure he goes to a good home.

Story
I am a big gentle 11 year old boy who LOVES to be loved. I get around just fine but I do have a strange gate and walk a bit sideways. The doctor says I need to lose some weight and that might help improve my walking. I also have mild asthma and have just learned to use an inhaler! My owner had to move to assisted living this year but couldn’t take me with her. I’m not a kitten, but I have a great personality, love everyone and am hoping someone will take me into their home and love me. I get along with dogs (small and large) and other cats.

Story
Tres is a sleek, shiny black panther that loves to race across the room, chasing anything from a piece of lint to jumping in a box or leaping in the air to catch a shadow. He's very shy with people but is curious, affectionate and ready for back scratching when he sees me. Tres would do well in most homes, but his new people need to allow him time to adjust. He also might be more comfortable with another cat or small, friendly dog buddy. He is very independent, active and likes to interact with our rat terrier. He puts up with the periodic grooming sessions that the dog believes are needed (the dog thinks she's his groomer). Tres knows when it's chow time and races to the feeding line. He hasn't been exposed to children but would do well as long as they give him time to adjust. I believe he will be a cherished and beautiful pet for a family. Born 5/3/2024 Tres, his siblings and mama were discovered on a patio when the kittens were only a few weeks old. Water and food were put out for them but they were worried the dogs would kill them. They were trapped, neutered and socialized over a few weeks. If you are interested in meeting me, please contact my rescue family at MeowtownAR@gmail.com to arrange a visit with my foster home!

Story
Birdie is a petite, spunky little girl who is full of energy. She is sleek all black except for 2 white toes. Born in September 2025, at 4 months old she is the life of the party; a fireball who loves to climb and jump, She will "fly" from one place to wherever she wants to land; frequently on someone's back or shoulders. She plays with her cat buddies at her foster home and even though they all are 4 times bigger than she is she leads the fun. She will also play with children and has had some exposure to dogs. While she loves to play, she is also a super-cuddler who will take every chance she can to snuggle up with you. Birdie and her siblings were found abandoned in an apartment in Arlington at 4 weeks of age. She is now very ready to find her forever home and will be a fun addition to an adopter. Born 9/28/2025 If you are interested in meeting me, please contact my rescue family at MeowtownAR@gmail.com to arrange a visit with my foster home!
